a lifeline to the outside world. if russia sees is odessa, it will effectively cost off ukraine from overseas trade and military aid. how that, that hamid reports. ah, when the sirens go off, people head to the shelter in odessa is deep underground into so called catacombs. all stone mines excavated 3 times a week, and her children have been coming and going from here since the beginning of the war before they have supplies ready for the long hold. i think it will just look nothing that will reduce the look. we have water here, we're the blankets we have to sleep here. his mom is with mats and to inflatable mattresses and he, we keep food a lot of different things. biscuits live a patio and different kinds of food. i have the passports and all the documents in my bag. as soon as i hear the sirens,

i pick up the children and come down here. this is the largest urban labyrinth in the world, and portions of it have been prepared for civilians to hide about a 1000 can fit in this part. down here it's a different world. you can't hear anything of what's happening above the about 2500 kilometers of tunnels and passageways. now this place has already been used as the shelter during previous wars. and during the cold war, it was designated as an nuclear bunker sections of it could also be used by the military to move under cover. the city is under threat of a 3 pronged at that from the north east. the black sea and the northwest level of new south, which only curious like if you wouldn't, you know, the main risk today is an amphibious landing rushes of trying to put psychological pressure on ukrainians by shelling from the sea and from the sky. we are just as of a vision on my house. they are trying to demonstrate their strength. they certainly

have it. but our defense system is ready to repel any attack unless they are probing over defenses to find valuable points. and mark them as targets are around the city volunteers are preparing for the worst this food role, usually bustling with doris, is now the headquarters of the humanitarian effort sponsored by some of the most influential business people of odessa. the public library is one of the few places to open, but here no more books in russians with the conflict started in 2014 russia's breed, authors can be found translated in ukrainian tucked under upper floor, a layer bullied security scheme, but ukrainian odessa is not as small as it might seem, and there is no need to support the russian narratives. the odessa is a russian city and speaks only russian. no, like i think the people and now switching to ukrainian, i really hope that a decimal not returned to pro russian narrative any more exclusions and air sirens

. i heard more often every day and night assigned that for a distance from the light at the end of the tunnel may still be far away. would have been humming under 0. odessa in southern ukraine. u. s. president joe biden has worn to his chinese counterpart, g. j, peg, and there will be consequences if beijing provides material support to russian forces attacking ukraine. the lead a spike on the phone for nearly 2 hours. china so far, refused to condemn russia's invasion, but has called for dialogue. we have a range of tools that could be considered and sanctions are certainly one tool in the tool box. i'm as they are for other countries as well, even if we as we have not outline specific consequences and we'll communicate those directly to china and of course with our european partners and counterparts. let's go to washington d. c and speak to rosalind jordan ross. and what else can you tell us about this

conversation between g and biden? well, a senior administration official briefing on the call told reporters that while the president did not make a direct threat to the chinese president of sheesh and ping, that there would be sanctions. and perhaps visa restrictions or other sorts of sanctions to punish china for not essentially taking sides in this war. the official did stress that told mr. biden was very, very clear about what the u. s. has been seeing happening on the ground in ukraine has been very clear about what u. s. intelligence and what allies intelligence have gathered about how vladimir putin, the president of russia, is running the war in ukraine. essentially, as this official put it, leaving it up to what china to make its own decisions. but clearly the u. s. wants to see china stand with the west. stand with the u. s. stand with other countries

who have condemned the invasion and who are condemning of the loss of life. really on both sides. in this conflict, the chinese president of, for his part, according to of state television, made it plain that while a china does not like war, wants to see peace. that there have to be ways of trying to reach that goal without unnecessarily punishing the russian people. and that was the reference to the impact of us lead sanctions on russia so far. and rosalind is anything else happening on the diplomatic front? well, we have just lord, the todd, the u. s. secretary of state entity blinking, did speak on friday with dmitri, who label the ukrainian foreign minister, the retail from the us state department indicated that it was much of what the u. s . has been saying to the ukrainian government that it stands not just with the

government, but with the ukrainian people that it is doing everything. it can to get security, humanitarian and economic age to the ukrainian government and to the ukrainian people. and that protecting ukraine. sovereignty is top of mind, certainly also prays for the courage of the ukrainian people in this war, which is now in its 4th week. ok, thank you for that. rosalind jordan without update from washington d. c. the 3 both countries have ordered the expulsions of russian embassy stuff. estonia, latvia and lithuania, say they have taken coordinates of action of solidarity with ukraine. a total of 10 russian diplomats being expelled. russia has vowed to respond to keesing the countries, the unjustified dismissals bushes president vladimir putin has praised the war in ukraine today. as a success, he appeared before large crowds gathered at a consent to celebrate 8 years since russia annexed crimea. and at smith reports

from moscow, ah, this was a powerful show of patriotism. in moscow, russia's biggest stadium was filled to its 81000 capacity to celebrate 8 years since the annexation of crimea, or as it's called here, the re unification. and everywhere the said, the sign that 1st appeared on russian military vehicles in ukraine, and has now become a symbol of support for russia's war. then it was a stage set for vladimir putin who told the crowd that the united states is using ukraine to threaten russia. is that the soldiers fighting their illustrated russian unity, bleacher beecham, shoulder to shoulder. they help each other who support each other i easily. and when needed, they shield each other from bullets with their bodies like brothers. pretty good such unity we have not had for a long time. napoleon, a survey after the 1st week of the war,

showed that what the kremlin calls its special operation in ukraine was supported by 58 percent of russians. there have been attempts to protest against the war, but they are quickly often brutally suppressed. but others are finding ways to voice their opposition, such as this art group called party of the dead, protesting somewhere in russia. we've heard teachers again in britain, we are practically living on a war footing. there's no way for it not to affect us any more. we have to fight this war, and those were stoking it for keeping it going and are prepared to take it to some catastrophic finale that show of descent won't get covered by russian television. but friday's flag waving in moscow and other cities will, though you won't hear that ukraine says it's fighting for survival of the west, dismiss his accusations that it wants to rip russia apart. bernard smith, al jazeera moscow. so head on out, is there an accusations fly in the u. n. russia says ukraine is conducting

dangerous chemical weapons research the u. s. as it's just a conspiracy theory and b o. final farewells and any pray ukrainian soldiers killed. and isaac, in the countries east on buried ah hell, i will say some rather nasty weather pushing away from the eastern seaboard of the u. s. clear skies coming back in behind him to see more sunshine here. but another area of low pressure that spills in it brought some snow over the rockies running in across the plains. and that's going to gather and sweep its way up towards the north east. as we go through sas stay so spread to say, some rather wet weather, snow on the northern flank of capital, backwash of snow coming in there,

across the canadian maritime lit of the temperature 25 celsius. therefore, d c. not doing too badly in the yoke at around 16 celsius as well. on the other side of the country, we are going to say some re slaten snow, just spilling across sir the pacific northwest, south of western parts of canada. it'll actually extend across a good part of california as we go on into sunday tourney to snow once again over the iraq, the so some mountain snow in here, but clear skies ahead of that. if little cool, if they see at 13 celsius on sunday afternoon, but the sun will be out by the sunshine to across a good part of the caribbean. of course there will be one or 2 showers, but more in the way of sunshine van showers to be some showers just coming back in there across the eastern islands. it'll scattering a showers to over towards the greater antilles. some show us there, the central america. ah, ah, tens of thousands of children were born into or lived under the iceland regime in

reportedly approaching city center. the presidents of china and the u. s. have held their fast direct talk since november. chinese state media reports as easing pain told joe biden, that the conflict is not in any one's interest. and rushes president vladimir putin has praised the war in ukraine as a success. as a concert in moscow, he appeared before large crowds gathered to celebrate 8 years since russia annex crimea. russian forces are expanding their offensive and hitting cities further west of ukraine. missiles landed in the city of la viv for the 1st time. he sing an aircraft repass site famous robbie reports within minutes of early morning air raid sirens throughout the city. russian missiles had targets near levine international airport shattering once again, the sense of relative safety. here in the west of ukraine. booth at reagan region

was flipped or read, boarding system worked ungrateful to the armed forces as they reacted some missiles which were launched from the black sea area. we're into september for missiles hit an aircraft repair plot. as you already know, there have been some attacks on this part of the country. a training camp in yavari last week and a military posted an airfield near luke. but the friday morning, airport strike is the closest the war has come to the city of levine. so far, as you see behind the smoke is still rising from the area that was hit, we've been stopped from going any further any closer to the areas that were hit by the strikes. police have pushed us back twice. we've tried to go over the bridge, but we've been sent back to this area here so we can't get a clear view of what's happening, but the smoke that continues to below, over the skies over the city certainly tells you that something definitely was hit . and it's still on fire. in the eastern city of car keys,

a college building was shell, killing one person entering 11 and trapping another in the rubble. the city is home to one of the largest markets in eastern europe. and it remains on fire, sparked by shelling on thursday. another shelling and crummy tours killed to an interim since russian rockets continued to pound the capital key as well. a nursery in school targeted on friday, killing one child in during 23 little good general jim mood. larissa, the aggressor always pays a high price for war and morton, but whatever happens to them, it cannot revive our cities or he'll our wounds. weakness will become members of the a you would life or will be different now. so is my all of those rest in peace who have given their lives for our pay. so say the enemy continues shilling a peaceful cities. attacks hitting mostly civilian targets is proof. ukrainian officials say that russia is choosing not to fight ukrainian troops instead hitting the country's most vulnerable. yeah. how can people in russia be so stupid and let

this happen? how come russians don't understand? they put in? it's not defending russian speaking people in ukraine. he simply went mad. that's it. this is what i think, right? because the same person would never do anything like this. in the central square of la v of the countries, cultural capital and installation highlights the most innocent victims of ward among the thousands of ukrainian dead, $109.00 empty prams symbolizing $109.00 infants killed in a conflict where the death toll increases every day zane basra v l g 0 live or some of the fest fighting has been in easton crane, where many soldiers have died. funerals have been held for more than 20 troops. end in a pro as that bag. is there a final farewell? but many of these 23 soldiers don't have relatives here to london. there on the other side of the front line. their comrades stand guard. paying

a final tribute early say yeah, yeah, purplish ro, chest or that i don't know. i joined the shooting recently. it's an honor for me. as part of my family and stay, the mom was snatched away from our military family. we are very deeply her. we feel emotional huffy. he gave his life for our country. may he rest in peace? he will always be remembered. may god take him to a better place because it's a holy deed. when one sacrifices himself for his country, never was his a motto. b o, it's the last family they had. oh, priests say the final pres and coffins are taken on their final journey, far from the soldier's homes, with no certainty, their parents, siblings, or partners, will ever get to visit their final resting place. although we should just in observe or just be we've got the most wealthy soldiers fell at the battle of

villanova. most of them were brought here from their unfortunately some of them were very young. i'm sorry, this is very difficult to me. but very young men have died while protecting ukraine . protecting all of us the war in the east is fierce and the russians appeared to be slowly but surely grinding the ukrainians. gang with ukrainian forces continued to resist. russian artillery has pounded the 2nd largest city club cave and the port city of mary upon the freezing graveyard of denise pro, far from killing the will to resist losses on the battlefield further fused. the anger was neither to build non wooster, bolster ticket monster. or we can think of his revenge, revenge avenging our men. this gives us motivation to protect our country. it's the only way the conflict in the east has been going on since invasion of crimean

2014 an estimated 14000 people have been killed. these latest casualties, since the recent russian basia this graveyard is full of young men that have died from this conflict. but the reality is, as long as this war goes on, more will follow. as i'd beg, i'll jazeera the negro. the well food program has warning of a wave of collateral hunger around the globe as ukraine supply chains collapse. united nations agency buys nearly half its wheat from ukraine. it says the dog situation. there will have implications for all countries that depend on it. the country's food supply chain is falling apart. movement of good has slowed down due to insecurity and the reluctance of divers to the eyes to base is like near pro let alone multiple. suing the consequences of the conflict in ukraine are radiating

outwards. they going away from a collateral hung on costs to glow. asha undo cain alone account for almost 50 percent of global. we'd played a bit a tougher as a senior spokeswoman for the un. well, food program. she says the impacts if the was already being felt between russia and ukraine, we have a 30 percent of the global we production for w. p alone. you clean is the 2nd largest country in terms of the procurement of food. so half of what we get for our operators worldwide come from you claims that include grain, sunflower, oil, and the number of agricultural products and food supplies. so of course, the impact of the conflict in your clean is being felt or ready at our budget. we are expecting $71000000.00 per month,

the increase in the same amount of food that we used to get last month. so that means that we 4000000 people will not receive food assistance. it means that, you know, our budget stretched. so if that is the impact that you get on the workflow program, let alone, what's the situation going to be? for countries that are heavily dependent on inputs and from the, from you clean the russia for the week. there will be a huge impact on the global supplies based on the week on the games. you claim is the bread, basket of europe. that is availability in the international market from the u. s. from canada, australia, but far away from many of the places and the countries that are dependent on the input of wheat and with the increase in fuel prices. this means that you have a longer lead time, but also increasing costs more than 2000000 ukrainian refugees of entered poland

since a start of rushes, invasion agencies say the number of people crossing borders to escape the war has slowed in recent days. they will, that is likely to change a fighting spreads further west. and the 3300000 people have fled ukraine. now the 2000000 are internally displaced. yes, nation security council, meanwhile, has met to discuss allegations that the u. s. is funding biological weapons research in ukraine? the u. s. denies the claim. kristen salamis at un headquarters in york. russia called the meeting to present what it described as new evidence, a u. s. supported biological research laboratory in the ukraine post a threat to the region brochure. their grades, he was to go to a woman, got a warrant, put simply, the ukranian authorities gave the pentagon carte blanche on the territory of ukraine to carry out dangerous biological experiments. there, this is not the noble assistance to ukraine,

that the american representatives talk about. this is a cynical use of its territory and population for dangerous research, which washington does not carry out on its own territory. so it doesn't run the risk of hurting its own people in the u. s. denies any chemical weapons programs exist. it is russia that has long maintained a biological weapons program in violation of international law. it is russia that has a well documented history of using chemical weapons. it is russia who is the aggressor here. the united states also warned that russia may very well be planning its own chemical weapons attacked using a false flag allegation to justify it. it was the 2nd time in 2 weeks that the security council met on the subject at russia's request. the u. s. hi, representative for disarmament said they had no evidence of chemical or biological

weapons, but she also conceded that the united nations currently has night or the mandate, nor the technical or operational capacity to investigate this invest in information . i asked the united kingdom's ambassador if that undermines their argument. if there is a genuine concern, the right thing to do would be to seal off the site. i have a ceasefire seal for site and then allow experts in to investigate. it is not the right thing to do to bring spurious claims to the un security council which ought debunked by every one that blue countries like china in brazil called for just such an independent investigation under the biological weapons convention which prohibits their use. meantime, daily attacks continue to batter ukraine, many of them indiscriminate according to the united nations cause of damage to civilian infrastructure and mounting casualties. kristin salumi al jazeera,
